Date:
12/13/13
College football has been played for 17 decades.
The first college football game was played on November 6, 1869 between Princeton and Rutgers. That year there were two games played, before a crowd that would probably more resemble a middle school football game today in terms of the number of fans in the stadium. In 2013, The Ohio State Buckeyes alone played 12 regular season games before home crowds of 100,000 + and a total number of spectators of over 1,000,000 for the season.
The next 17 blogs will walk you through the 17 decades of college football, starting with the year 1869.
